[Rhodes22-list] Sailing

[Robert Quinn]

Rummy:  You definitely have ice in your blood stream.  For us Florida lads 
temps in the 50's are deep winter.

Heading your way (Abbeville) tomorrow; however, owing to an appointment with 
the Dermatologist and Plastic Surgeon (too much time in the Florida sun), 
I'm going to have to delay contacting you until Springtime.

Smooth sailing and Merry Christmas.

Bob on the "NoKaOi"
